Despite its rocky launch,Destiny 2: The Final Shapereceived near-universal acclaim for its campaign, rivaling that ofThe Witch QueenandForsaken, and vastly overshadowingLightfall. Even those who don’t care much about the story have a lot to enjoy, from its action-packed arenas and the dungeon-like mechanics peppering its levels.
The journey into the Pale Heart sets the stage for the future of the game. Players will have to finish the campaign and make all the necessary preparations if they want to fight the witness in thefinal raid ofDestiny 2’sLight and Dark saga. If you want to keep track of all the missions in this expansion, here’s the complete list.
All Missions In Destiny 2: The Final Shape
There’s a total of eight missions inThe Final Shape’smain campaign, and they’re spread across 34 steps in total. Note that just like in theDestiny 2 Witch Queen’smain quest chain, these steps include simple actions like visiting an area, interacting with an object, or talking to an NPC. This doesn’t necessarily mean that there are 34 missions to play through.
Destiny 2’sExcision missionwas enabled shortly after the world’s first race for the Salvation’s Edge raid. It is the game’s first 12-player activity, and it serves as the finale of the Light and Dark saga. After finishing the campaign, you may find Excision to the far right side of the map screen while inside the Pale Heart.
How Long To Beat The Final Shape Campaign
Players can expectThe Final Shape’scampaign to last about 9–12 hours depending on player skill and difficulty setting. Legend campaigns will naturally take longer due to every enemy being tankier than usual, and the higher risk of failure can lead to many more retries. There are also secrets scattered around some of the campaign levels, which can lead to more hours overall for completionists.
However, the campaign is not the end ofThe Final Shape’sofferings. Players still have a lot to do as they prepare to take down the Witness. Once the campaign is over, the Pale Heart will become fully open, presenting players with new events, Lost Sectors, and other challenges where they can gain more power. This is where most of the exotics from the trailers become available, includingthe Still Hunt Sniper RifleandMicrocosm.
